Luck is a Charm

"Arggh"

Zen screamed in agony when the essence flame started traveling from his throat to his inner body part.

The BloodJade Flame continues to antagonize Zen and use his flame to try and destroy everything inside of Zen.

'Damn it, at this rate, the Ice Steel Armor pill effect will run out and I would be ruined.'

Zen grits his teeth and tries his best to guide the BloodJade Flame to go toward the path of his core.

Although he was successful, the BloodJade Flame was not on the losing end either as it managed to destroy multiple bones in the fragment.

*Puff*

Being damaged from the inside which is the weakness of all cultivators, Zen sprayed out a huge pile of blood into the floor.

"Zen," Cecilia screamed in a worried expression when she saw him being injured this hard.

"It's fine Cecilia, just some blood as a sacrifice to tame this damn flame," Zen said in a difficult tone as he concentrated his focus in the flame again.

'BloodJade Flame, let's see who wins in the end.' Zen said inwardly as he increased his aura to push the essence flame further to his core.

Sensing the sudden powerful aura from Zen, the BloodJade Flame knew its fate was about to be over soon if he didn't use everything he got.

*Brrrrrrrrm*

The BloodJade Flame increased its lotus size completely and sprayed every fire to every corner of Zen's body.

*Crack*

The Ice Steel Armor pill's effect is about to be melted from such intensity and some are melted completely.

Seeing the drastic change in his body and Zen's face turning bright red, Cecilia flicks her hand to dump the Soul Calming pill into his mouth.

*Gulp*

Zen swallowed it unconsciously and with this new pill, Zen's mind stabilized as he gritted his teeth to risk everything.

With a final push, Zen gushes all his stamina to push the essence flame into the core where his ice armor distinguishes and causes more internal injuries in his body.

'Screw you BloodJade Flame, you're done.' Zen said when the corner part of the essence flame touched his core.

As soon as it made contact, the core became like a suction of a vacuum to the essence flame and it tried to struggle.

But no matter how much he tried, the core didn't budge an inch as it sucks every part of it.

*Puff*

When Zen succeeded in fusing with essence flame, he sprayed his last final blood before fainting from the aftereffect damage.

Meanwhile, Cecilia walks over to Zen who gently wipes away the sweat from his forehead.

"Well done, now rest slowly," Cecilia said in a gentle tone while smiling when she saw Zen sleeping like a baby.

============

2 days later~

*Huff*

Zen woke up while touching every part of him to see if he's still alive or actually died from that essence flame.

"Phew, I'm still alive. Hahahaha." Zen starts to laugh when he finally tamed an essence flame for himself.

'Now I can use a new move to fight and most importantly. I can concoct pills and eat them like candies to regain my strength when fighting people.'

This was the reason why Zen was so obsessed with having an essence flame. Not only can he become an alchemist which will make him rich, but he can also use it to cheat in battles.

*Fwoosh*

Activating his essence flame in his palm, Zen sees the BloodJade Flame projecting, except this time, it's in a docile manner.

The polar opposite of his previous wreaking havoc attitude. The flame was touching Zen's palm, almost like a dog rubbing its head to its owner.

"You are so much cuter like this than before," Zen said slowly before closing his palm to make it vanish.

"Cecilia, where's Silence and Freya?" When Zen used his spiritual sense to see where he is, he couldn't detect their aura.

"They both went away to investigate ways to go to the Divine World. After all, you fainted for a week then another 2 days like a damn baby. We can't waste our time like you." Cecilia said in an icy cold tone.

It was unlike her gentle and kind attitude before when Zen fainted. For women like her, there's only one word to describe them.

Tsundere!

Only a tsundere could possibly act nonchalantly in front of their lover but deep inside, they are extremely caring and know everything about their significant other. 

However, Zen doesn't know any of that so he could only twitch his mouth from such a comment.

"If Freya and Silence are gone for who knows how long, what's our next destination?" Zen asked since it would be a waste of time to continue talking about them.

It's not like they just disappear or vanish, they are simply traveling someplace else to find a way for ascension.

'Those empyreans in the Divine World, just you wait for me when I ascend there. I would give you all a big surprise.'

Zen said inwardly while thinking of the best punishment possible for them. Killing or torturing would be too bland and won't even satisfy him.

"Cecilia, do those empyreans bitches have any beautiful daughters and wives?"

"Yes, and why do you ask such questions?" Cecilia replied in confusion at the sudden interest from Zen.

"Nothing, just thinking about fucking their daughters and then his wife to cuck them. I will bring a big green hat just for them." Zen said as he thinks this is the best punishment for revenge.

'Hurting Cecilia who is no doubt going to be my woman, then I shall take both your precious gems in front of you.' 

Zen starts having a creepy smile on his face when he imagines himself fucking both daughter and mother in the empyrean's bed.

"You're an idiot, Zen." However, his daydream was cut short when Cecilia told him something else.

She continued, "Some of those empyreans are females and single so how are you going to cuckold them."

A moment of silence echoed in the room before both of them started laughing like they knew what to do.

"Ahahaha, Cecilia, you're evil. Of course, I shall bang them hard to make them repent their mistakes." Zen said when he knew what Cecilia was implying.

If the empyreans that Zen wants to cuckold is male then for the female empyreans, their fate is obviously Zen fucking them real hard as revenge.

Cecilia's suggestion was to make them turn into slut who thought they were so high and mighty.

She would only be jealous of Zen making love to girls that she doesn't hate but for her enemies, she would do anything to get the maximum satisfaction.

"Alright enough laughing and daydream. For our next plan, we would head to the richest kingdom's auction house that is starting next week. Silence and Freya sent a mental transmission to me while they're exploring." Cecilia stopped laughing and started to inform Zen of their next move.

'I guess my plan to meet up with Sara is delayed again. Hopefully, she doesn't mind.' Zen wondered what Sara is doing now since he won't meet up with her anytime sooner.

Clenching his fist slowly, Zen said, "Let's hurry our journey then."
